Arsenal to save Adebayor from Tottenham nightmare?

After scoring an impressive 62 goals in 142 games for the Gunners, Emmanuel Adebayor couldn't resist the temptation of joining the Qatari revolution in Eastlands and agitated until Arsene Wenger reluctantly let him go.

Such an acrimonious departure annoyed the Gunners faithful no end and left him with very few friends in north London.

Adding insult to injury, the controversial character seemingly burned his bridges with Arsenal on Saturday 12 September 2009 after running the length of the field to celebrate after scoring against his old club for City.

There is no doubt that Arsenal need a striker. Only Olivier Giroud and the previously exiled Nicklas Bendtner are available to the Gunners at the moment with the latter looking unfit for first-team football at any level, let alone for a Premier League title contender.

Adebayor would come for next to nothing and, if Wenger can inspire him back to his best form, could be a bargain.

He may have severed his ties with the club but the same could be said of Mathieu Flamini, who left the club high and dry for nothing after Wenger had rescued his career from mediocrity at Marseille.

Flamini returned for free this summer and could be considered the bargain of the summer, playing in every Premier League game since signing with impressive results.

If Adebayor, 29, wants to salvage his prime years in the game, he needs to get his head down and start working hard again.

His best playing days were for Arsenal and Wenger can take the credit for that. He can guide Adebayor back to his best giving Adebayor some much needed redemption, Arsenal the striker they so desperately need and ridding their north London rivals of an unwanted drain of the club's resources.

It's best for all parties. Wenger, sign him up.
